I hate to contradict a fellow blogger - especially one I am getting to know and like, but I must correct you on the following...
Richmond vs. William & Mary
"The South's Oldest Rivalry"
Series Record: William & Mary leads 59-50-5 (2004)
Trophy: The I-64 Bowl
Notes: This rivalry began in 1898; only Lafayette-Lehigh, Princeton-Yale, and Harvard-Yale have played more games. (Minnesota-Wisconsin is tied for fourth with this series.) This is almost always the last game of the regular season for both teams; for many years during the middle of the 20th century the game was played on Thanksgiving. The "I-64 Bowl" started in 1984.
But I am pulling for youall anyway... nothing better than college sports!
